The weight of Raju on the moon is `1/6` times than that on the earth. Raju can lift 15 kg of mass on the earth. How much maximum mass can he lift on the moon by applying the same force ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
90kg

`g_e=g and g_m=(g)/6`
The force applied by Raju to lift 15kg on the earth.
`F=mg_(c)=(15)g_c N=(15)g N`
the mass lifted by Raju on the moon by applying same force,
`m=F/g_m=(15g)/(g/6)=90kg`
